Someone apparently donated a live grenade to Goodwill about a week ago, but police detonated the grenade without mishap Thursday after store personnel told them about it.

The report didnt say how many times the grenade may have been handled at the store or why it took a week for someone to call police.

Thomas Royal, a spokesman for Goodwill Industries of Northwest North Carolina, said Thursday night that the grenade appeared to have been modified, and the store employees initially didnt think it was dangerous.
